Total Film's introduction:
If you grew up in the 1980s, you probably noticed a bit of a movie trend. With the advent of more complex special effects (thanks, Star Wars), world-building was in, which meant a gold rush of some of the coolest, most imaginative fantasy films the cinematic landscape has ever produced.
So here's our celebration of shaggy hair-dos, bare-chested meat-sacks and the very best in out-of-this-world action. One small caveat. Where favourite fantasy flicks blurred the lines with other genres a bit too much (Ghostbusters, Indiana Jones) we discounted them. And, sorry, but Ewoks: Battle For Endor didn't make the cut...
